Anatomical Etymogrammes

The Anatomical Etymogrammes collection is a unique collection of 97 beautiful, hand-drawn, pencil illustrations that represent the origins of anatomical terms. All illustrations are from John Kelway's book The Human Body's Cabinet of Etymological Curiosities, winner of the Open Competition held by the Institute of Anatomical Sciences in September 2021. These etymogrammes (i.e. illustrations that represent a word's etymological origins) are a novel concept created by John Kelway to help people understand why anatomical structures were given the names that they bear today. Thus, these illustrations are not only beautiful, but they are also useful learning tools that could one day be used in both real and virtual classrooms across the world and, perhaps one day, the metaverse.
